Published Today
I am published today in the Letters Section of the New York Times (Monday, Nov. 2, Page A16).
I wrote this letter last Monday in response to an article about local Chinese officials who passed an ordinance which forces schoolchildren to stop and SALUTE *every car* that passes-by as they walk to school. The rationale of the Chinese officials is that this order makes it "safer" for the children and also "teaches them courtesy."
The Editor has given my letter the title: "Imposing Rules on Kids." It's in the actual paper and also on the web.
I don't know if this link will get you there -- not sure if one must sign-up first -- but here's the online Letters page with the headline to click:

(Of course it is published under my real name, which I rarely use online.)

Miss Magill's Monitor
Because of her age, Miss Magill would leave the room for a few minutes from time to time. When she did, she brought in one of her former students, now in the upper grades, to serve as monitors. (This was before they opened Joan of Arc Junior High; P.S. 166 still went up to eighth grade.) The monitors--always girls--were taller and older, intimidating not just through residual fear of Miss Magill, but through their size and age. Any sign of disorder and a glance from them stopped us cold.

Miss Anna F. Magill
“First, children must want to read,” Miss Anna F. Magill would tell the teachers who came from all over the United States to learn her methods. “And second, they must have something worth reading.” She’d taught longer than any other teacher in any other school in New York City and always at P.S. 166 on Eighty-Ninth between Amsterdam and Columbus. She was the author of nine Anna F. Magill Readers and three Anna F. Magill teaching manuals, published by Ginn and Company of Boston and year after year, she terrified the first grade students in the school. She terrified their parents, too. She even terrified the principal. Or maybe it was awe.

My novel, The Ezekiel Code, is "Best Seller"
I was both surprised (shocked is more like it!) and thrilled last night to discover my novel, The Ezekiel Code (www.ezekielcode.com), is listed among the "Best Sellers" in 3 categories!
Kindle/Occult, #17
Kindle/Religious Fiction, #49
Paperback/Occult, #76
Book sales fluctuating as they do you never know how long it will last. Guess I'll treat myself to a steak dinner and a bottle of wine while the news is still good. LOL
